Biggest opportunity: “account”, “links” and “memberpress” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 300 of 14.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Admin & Utilities plugin keeps 0.6%, across 4,189 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Admin & Utilities plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 8+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 5.0.31, well behind 6.8.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| account your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| links your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| memberpress your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| menu your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Memberpress is a top-tier plugin for managing memberships, offering almost limitless possibilities thanks to its add-ons. The support provided is incredible. No matter the issue, it gets resolved. The ability to automatically manage Discord server roles is a unique feature in the market. After comparing all plugins available, Memberpress stands out as the best by far. While it takes some time to fully understand its functionalities, once mastered, it becomes an indispensable tool. A big thank you to the team for their hard work.

Setting up the videos was quite difficult, it’s hard for the user to find the course they purchased, very little customization allowed. I wanted to create my own page for user accounts, their short-codes were limited. Offering files was way more difficult. After spending the last two days trying to as a simple link to a users account and or creating several pages to add the content purchased, it never works the way it should. I’m thinking of cutting my losses here and trying EDD. There has to be a simpler way for a user to purchase and download a file. The good news is I’ve read every single line of the MP manual.
